7: Response to What versions? (response to 1)

Sorry, I misunderstood...

You really don't need them to get underway, in fact most ACS sites (ours or aD's) are running without the patch as the memleak problem was only recently diagnosed.  My own site runs without it, for instance.  You can avoid the leaks by having minthreads=maxthreads in  your .tcl init file if you're concerned, as the leak happens when a thread is killed and in the above case no threads are ever killed, they sit around waiting for new traffic.

Which, BTW, is why the AOLserver folks never ran into it.  They run Digital City etc with minthreads=maxthreads.

So I suggest you just get started with aol32+ad12 and update to ad13 when it becomes available.
